Condolence from Kim Rice-Martin on January 11th, 2024 8:03 am

Mrs Jan was such a beautiful lady inside and outside . I was lucky to have had her in my life for so long, and have so many wonderful memories of her from my high school days and then my adult days living in Papa Murray’s house right next door to she and Max. After losing Max she and i became extremely close and i will cherish those years and memories forever. Rest in Peace Mrs. Jan, I will see you again and can’t wait to get another hug from you.

Condolence from Sandra Pepper on January 11th, 2024 11:51 am

I met Jan in a cancer survivor group and soon joined her in working at Relay for Life. Later joined her at OSLC and relished her friendship. Jan always had creative ideas that she actually carried out. She was a great listener and would offer advice and encouragement just when I needed it. She was cute too and fun….what a cheery smile Jan had. We were almost exactly the same age….I appreciate the live stream as getting lost in Waco is a frequent habit of mine. Sandra Pepper

Condolence from Patti Mahurin on January 12th, 2024 2:49 pm

Rest in peace dear friend. I will always remember the good times and treasure your friendship. love you always.
